Steve-e Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 I'm happy to report that the Falcon Road P. Way gang has recently been out laying a new pipe run opposite the Bagged Aggregate shed ready for increased throughput. This also requires that a new colour light position needs to be established for the run up to Oil Drum Lane sidings. Clearly a jack hammer is needed to prepare the ground.

I fully believe that this medium is only really useful if it is used to pass on ideas and help to others. This best way of doing this is in pictures and diagrams. I have learnt so much from other peoples' posting! Glad to be of help. Dave Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so I'd love to know how you got the dominoes corrected. Hi Rob. I think you must mean the Class 47 next to the triple grey 56. If so, it's 47035. A straight Bachmann model. Not sure what you mean about the dominoes. Dave Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

dasatcopthorne Posted May 2, 2014 Author Share Posted May 2, 2014 Hi Dave lovely pics, nice atmosphere, really good stuff. Well done :locomotive: :locomotive: Andy. Thanks for your comments. I while back I was looking for a small layout to build for home so that I could move locos around and shunt a few wagons etc. I was much impressed with Loch Leven and at one stage decided to copy it. Never got started though, as the space I was going to use never materialised, That was a great layout. Dave . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dasatcopthorne Posted May 27, 2014 Author Share Posted May 27, 2014 Hi Guys. A few new members' wagons arrived in Oil Drum Lane yard this week. Cheers Dave 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dasatcopthorne Posted June 1, 2014 Author Share Posted June 1, 2014 Hi Guys Falcon Road is soon to have its Exhibition Debut. A small affair but just right to give it a shake down before appearing at a bigger show in Worthing, September 2014. The layout is going to have a two day testing in June at a small 'do' in Carshalton near Sutton, Surrey. A local museum known as Honeywood House is having a 'railway weekend'. It's free and besides Falcon Road, there will be 4 or 5 other layouts from the Croydon and Wimbledon Clubs. Everyone's welcome, of course, but don't expect a full blown model railway exhibition. If you are thinking of changing to DCC, want to learn more about it or just want to enjoy a few layouts, come along a have a look. Cheers Dave Smith Carshalton & Sutton MRC. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dasatcopthorne Posted June 20, 2014 Author Share Posted June 20, 2014 Our little debut is fast approaching and I have been adding small touches here and there. Some additional bufferstop lights in Oil Drum Lane yard as well as soldering up some small Veroboards with variable resistors to try and bring the brightness down on our Absolute Aspects colour lights. Won't know if it works until I get to test them at our Club on Monday. Dave Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
